the outsiders with rob lowe and patrick swayze etc
this film was brillant,the story was written well and the stars were fantasic in this film a must see with a sad ending

Great New Soundtrack...
The musical score in the original version underlined the melodrama in an almost 1950's way. The new version is not only more true to S.E. Hinton's novel but the soundtrack is much more appropos, in time with the early/mid 1960's backdrop of the story. You can't get more timeless than bluesy surf garage rock mixed with Sun era/early RCA Elvis. The new sounds juxtaposed against the original 'Stay Gold' theme provide a relief which further accentuates the beauty of the original composition.


FFC Belittles His Own Classic By Altering The Score...
Not only does the new music change the mood and quality of critical scenes, it's tantamount to watching old Batman episodes. As soon as something develops, in comes the cheesy music...
The added scenes were poorly produced which is why they didn't make the original cut...The interviews seemed contrived.
I'm not impressed.
The older version supersedes the new.
